Simon Smart has a resume thick enough to be used as a weapon.

After growing up all over the world, getting a law degree and then running away to study combat-oriented martial arts and meditation in Japan, Simon now resides in Tucson, Arizona.

Simon Smart believes that effectiveness in our business, our relationships and our lives comes from powerfully integrating our mind, bodies and spirit.

Meeting his wife while training thousands of soldiers in close-quarter combat skills before they deployed to the Middle East, he moved to the US just weeks before the economy crumbled. His journey took him through real estate, working with crime scene victims and delivering death notifications in the middle of the night, to working for a national Google partner where he somehow achieved national sales leader recognition while battling suicidal depression. Recognizing how incompatible a corporate role was with his desire to live as a free, independent powerful and present man, he walked away to became a sales and marketing consultant, creating millions of dollars of value for his clients on his own terms.

Simon’s primary mission now is Warrior Protocol, a training program and community based on ancient and modern warrior technologies, which connects male entrepreneurs with their full, Level 10, Kick-Ass Warrior selves - so that they can 10x their success in business, relationships and life.

You can connect with Simon on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/simon.smart.5) or through www.WarriorProtocol.com)
